What Is Ryegrass Hay?
Ryegrass Hay is a type of grass species, loved by small animals for its fibre content, rich colour (extremely green!) and its crunchy stems to aid dental function. Ryegrass Hay is a palatable option to feed your small pets.
At HayDay, we grow all of our grass on our farm in Yorkshire, meaning we have full control of our hay from field to nibble:
• We barn dry our hay for consistently high quality hay all year round
• Our Ryegrass Hay is long stem which is great for your small animal's teeth and tummies
• We work closely with our in house nutritionist Briony to ensure that you're feeding your small pet's the best!
